Tune:[I love the Lord, he heard my cry]
Arranger:Nolan Williams, Jr.
Composer:Richard Smallwood

56. I love the Lord

1 I love the Lord, he heard my cry
and pitied every groan.
Long as I live, and troubles rise,
I’ll hasten to his throne.

2 I love the Lord, he heard my cry
and chased my grief away.
O let my heart no more despair
while I have breath to pray.
